Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 18195a
"لَيسَ الْمِسْكينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّه الأُكْلَةُ وَالأُكْلَتَانِ، واللَّقْمَةُ واللقْمَتَانِ، وَمَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ لِيُثْرَى مَالهُ، فإِنَّمَا هُوَ رِضْفٌ مِن النَّارِ يَتَلَهَبُه، فَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُقلَّ وَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيكْثِرْ".

"The poor person is not the one who is turned away by a meal or two meals, or a morsel or two morsels. And whoever asks people in order to increase his wealth, he is only taking embers of the Fire, which he swallows. So whoever wishes, let him ask less, and whoever wishes, let him ask more."
